my favorite was probably POA or COS but POA has been my favorite book so that's probably why its my fav. movie. And I can't wait for GOF to come out!!!

My favourite Harry Potter film is definetely POA. The other two were okay, but I thought they were, well kind of weak. I'm not sure about favourite actor or actress, I don't have one. My favourite book is POA as well.

Well my favourite is POA out of the movies so far. It was a lot more how I imagined Hogwarts like the grounds and everything. I don't have a favourite actor or actress in it to be honest. Although I love the way robbie coltrane (sp?) plays Hagrid. I think he does such a good job. My favourite book is Order of the Pheonix. I wonder what the Goblet of Fire movie will be like?!

Well. As a huge fan of the books, It's hard for me to say I enjoyed the films at all. However, the 3rd I really did enjoy. I think Alfonso did the book justice...I was so excited when so many of the lines were straight from the novel. Many people disagree with me, but oh well. I'm really excited for GOF to come out-it was by far my favourite novel (I don't know why) so I'm pretty anxious to see it and see if they get it right. As for favourite actor-I'm not sure. They all have done such a good job. And lets face it, I will always imagine the characters differently. So, I couldn't decide.

Most definitely PoA. In the first two, the young actors didn't do a great job, and they almost stuck TOO close to the book. I'm all for movies being faithful to the books they're based on, but it's no fun if the actors sound like they're just reading book lines and not really living out the story. I like Daniel Radcliffe as Harry, and David Thewlis (is that his name?) as Lupin
I can't wait for GoF! Should be excellent, although from the teaser and the pictures I've seen, Fleur doesn't look ethereal enough, Cedric not handsome enough, and Krum about 40 years older than Hermione. Still, I'll see it ASAP after it comes out!

I agree with you  Daniel did improved in this one. I also loved how David Thewlis portrayed Lupin

I didn't really like the movies at all, but I especially DISTLIKED PoA!!!! I thought I'd love it, since I LOVED the book (read it like 6 times so far), but I was REALLY dissapointed in the movie! What the heck was the point of making Dumbeldore a hippie?????? He wasn't in the first two movies, he wasn't in the book, so WHY?! I don't know...I think GoF looks better though, so hopefully I will like it

I didn't actually like any of the films; I don't think they did the books much justice, but the best one was definitely PoA, because the actors had progressed a lot since the first movie...

I loved PoA. I thought Daniel Radcliffe was really good, Emma Watson was pretty good, and Rupert Grint wasn't that great but lovalbe b/c of that one expression he has. I was slightly disappointed in how they portrayed Sirius though, he's barely in it and they didn't go through everything that happened at the Shrieking Shack. But it was still great.

I did think Sirius should look a little bit younger. I mean, when he's all cleaned up and non-grimy in GoF and OotP, he's supposed to look decades younger, and I can't imagine Gary Oldman looking very young and handsome (sorry Gary  ).

I found this pic over Mugglenet. It's from Mad Eye Moody from the upcoming movie.
What you guys think?

I think the best of the movies will be the following Globet of fire. I have seen a lot of screens and it looks amazing!! I want to watch it asap, but I have to wait till November... And I cannot wait!!!

Although all the movies were good, I really liked the Chamber of Secrets the best. I haven't read any of the books so I don't know how they compare to the movies. Eventuality I will get to the books, but for now I will stick to the movies.

I liked the 3d Movie the best. The actors for Lupin and Gary Oldman did great stuff, and I liked it to be darker. But I liked them all. The main actors rock I think

I think they picked the wrong guy for Sirius....he is NOT what I imagined at all, so whenever I read the books, I just forget about him
